RECENT RELEASES
NEW: Doing Innovation: Creating Economic Value - Book 1 Perspectives on Innovation
This new E-Book is the first of four written to provide the basics for gaining an understanding of what innovation involves, what it takes to be an innovator, and what it takes to develop a culture where innovation can thrive. Doing innovation: Creating Economic Value is not a “how to” book series: its purpose is to learn and apply the fundamentals in the context of the organization’s purpose and associated values. So, if you’re looking to become an innovator, or participating in the innovation process, begin with Book 1: Perspectives on Innovation.

Book 1: Perspectives on Innovation:

  • Provides the historical background of innovation
  • Considers the ambiguities associated with innovation
  • Describes the basic concepts associated with innovation
  • Differentiates between idea, concept, invention, and innovation
  • Defines the types of innovation
  • Identifies how innovation takes place
  • Considers innovation in different types of organizations

By Gerard H. (Gus) Gaynor, retired 3M Director of Engineering and President, IEEE Technology Management Council.
